X Picks:

@AviationWeek “There’s no way they can get the E2 into U.S. regional fleets” – scope clauses are keeping airlines locked out of newer, efficient aircraft.

@business Boeing’s 777X is slated to fly commercially for the first time in early 2027 instead of next year.

@businessposthq Pilot Path, a Dublin-based pilot training business, expects revenue to grow to €1.3 million this year, and the business to achieve profitability by the end of 2026

@ByERussell Airlines, at least full-service ones, are eager for more of Airbus’ new long-range narrowbody, the A321XLR. At @AerLingus, “there [is] a lot more things we could do with more aircraft.” But getting more XLRs, and the seats on them, is the challenge.
